Tom Brady; least clutch QB in NFL history?

[Hootie]

(Slow day at work for me, guys):

Tom Brady:

2005: Gets crushed by Jake Plummer and the Denver Broncos. Plays HORRENDOUSLY. Embarrassingly bad.

2006: Blows an 18 point lead to Peyton Manning in the AFCCG. Plays horrendously, and ends the game in Indy territory throwing a game ending INT to Marlon Jackson. Great clutch play.

2007: 18-1. Scores 14 points in the Super Bowl in a game they are favored to win by 13.5. Also, in the AFCCG against the Chargers, he posted a QB rating of 18 and threw 3 INT's. Very clutch, I know.

2008: KNEE CRUSHER; Cassel wins 11 games as starting QB.

2009: Gets OBLITERATED by Joe Flacco and the Ravens. Loses the game single-handedly in the 1st quarter and posts a WHOPPING QBR OF 4.2. Not a typo. FOUR POINT TWO. FOUR POINT TWO. In reference, Peyton posted a 24.4 last year against Seattle in the Super Bowl. So picture how bad that performance was, and multiply it by about 25.

2010: Lost @ home to MARK SANCHEZ AND THE JETS. But don't worry guys, Tom Brady doubled his QBR in this one and posted a respectable 8.7 EIGHT POINT SEVEN.

2011: Got to the Super Bowl by beating Tim Tebow, playing HORRENDOUSLY against the Ravens (again) in the Lee Evans game, and then overthrowing Welker to lose another Super Bowl. Clutch.

2012: Got obliterated by Joe Flacco and the Ravens despite being favored by 7. He posted a respectable 40 QBR, though, and only lost by 15 ... despite Peyton beating the team the week before only to be Rahim Moore'd. Great clutch play.

2013: Beat Andrew Luck despite throwing 0 TD's. Lost to Peyton Manning, while playing another mediocre game. 1 TD. Very clutch, Mr. Brady!

So, in short, the biggest playoff choking QB in the NFL right now is Tom Brady. In all of those aforementioned choke jobs, he was favored to lose TWICE, both to Peyton Manning (both losses).

Any more myths you want be to bust?

4.2 QBR and 8.7 QBR is Rex Grossman bad, in case anyone wanted a reference point.

I'd be impressed if Brady won Super Bowls in 2001, 2007 and 2011.

the fact he won all 3 when he was a pup, was more of a game manager, and had the benefit of Spygate to boot ... makes me less impressed. You're not going to sell me that Brady is some 'postseason' god because 10 years ago his team rattled off 9 wins in a row and then lost a 1st round pick, had their coach got fined the maximum amount, and have the corrupt commissioner destroy all of the evidence from the scandal so it would never get out to the public

ya know?

hootie don't ever talk about the qb position again. Football is almost practically a failure sport like baseball. Esp. the QB position.

Brady is top 4 all time and if he wins another SB. arguably the top QB of all time. please just stop..

Another game-winning touchdown pass from Fivehead.... right to Dre Kirkpatrick! Get in here and defend your boy, Hootie!

[BigCatDaddy]

Aaron Rodgers also over rated!

[GoChargers]

Noodle Arm with four picks in an absolute must-win game for the Donks. Get in here and explain this shit, Hootie!

[RealSNR]

I wish Hootie would get into Manning/Brady arguments like this before the Chiefs play Manning.

His bad timing is really something else.

[BigCatDaddy]

Hey Hootie,

Please tell us how there is a 100% chance Alex Smith will be here next year! Please!

[Hootie]

There is a 100% chance Alex Smith is our starting QB next year.

And this was a must win game for Denver? Someone needs to explain that one to me.

They had to win this one if they wanted to have any remote chance at homefield, which is the only way Noodle Arm's even sniffing the Super Bowl. Thanks to four picks from the biggest choker in NFL history, that's gone now.

You need to look up definition of a "must win" game.

You might want to look up the definition of "least clutch".

[Hootie]

Sure. Read the OP. That's pretty anti-clutch.

Uhh...sure, it was a meaningless game to them with nothing to gain.

Wow.

I agree that Brady has had some awful playoff games in the last 10 years, but where you go off the rails is by insinuating that Brady is the least clutch QB in "NFL HISTORY". Statements like that are just plain stupid and make it very hard to take your opinion/arguments seriously.
